SEE EARLY (Continued from Page l� eft In a new scb„e41u1e of rents for Town Hall rooms, reconl+' mended Fby the general govera.. meat committee of council. w In introducing the schedule, :chairman Counsillnr Cart to said the -committee felt organ- izations .using the hall should pay a ]fair share •of the cost. Proposed rates, he said; while higher, did not begin to meet costs. • Rates proposed were: Town- ship councils, $10 a meeting; organizations for profit, $10 a meeting, $5 for small ante- room; instruction groups, "$5 a month; Scouts, $1 per annum; euchre club, $1 per annum; la cal service and charitable or- ganizations, no charge. Mr. Cardno said Tuckersmith had been paying $35 per an- num, and' some years ago had donated a conference table and chairs. McKillop had express- ed interest in meeting in the hall. While the increase ap- pared substantial, the year's rent represented interest a on only $2,000, and it would be impossible to provide similar accommodation for that amount:' In addition, there would be heating and maintenance. Council took no action con- cerning a change in the boun- daries of the Maitland Conser- vation Authority. Mayor Daly, who with Councillor Cardno at- tended the inaugural meeting, said there was opposition to the assessment of border mun- icipalities. • Consideration was also being given to including the Bayfield Valley. He felt this would be an advantage to Seaforth and other fringe towns.

He married a pretty Scottish graduate., of Edinburgh ' Royal Infirmary, Kathleen Anne MacLean, in St. Giles Cathedral, Edinburgh, im-- 1937, and brought her home to Sudbury. He pioneered in chest and heart disease throughout the Sudbury district and the work of examining suspected cases of tuberculosis was done by him until this was taken over by the Sudbury District Health •Unit.
